Type of child restraint Applies to
Forward-facing child restraint
4–7years: Keep your child in a forward-facing car seat with a
harness and tether until he or she reaches the top height or weight
limit allowed by the car seat’s manufacturer. Once your child out‐
grows the forward-facing car seat with a harness, it’s time to travel
in a booster seat, but still in the back seat.
Booster seat
7–12years: Keep your child in a booster seat until he or she is
big enough to fit in a safety belt properly. For a safety belt to fit
properly, the lap belt must lie snugly across the upper thighs, not
the stomach. The shoulder belt should lie snugly across the shoul‐
der and chest and not cross the neck or face. Remember: your
child should still ride in the back seat because it’s safer there.
Today's child restraints are designed to be secured to the vehicle either with the standard 3point lap
and shoulder belt or with the LATCH/UAS lower universal anchorages. Many child restraints also re‐
quire the use of a top tether strap. Depending on your state or country, top tether straps may also be
required by law. The top tether strap reduces the forward movement of the child restraint in a crash,
to help reduce the risk of head injury if the child hits the vehicle interior.
Your vehicle has the following installation options in the second and third row of seats
